Behind arched windows and an egg blue facade, this cosy cafe serves six-inch cakes, toasties, chicken baguettes and salads. Nab a spot on the lawn out the front, or at one of its outdoor tables under a very-French umbrella.

This all-day diner serves up flavours of Southern Italy with Mediterranean influences. Highlights have included panko-encrusted eggs accompanied by sourdough, salad, ham hock and candied walnuts. Also, fried eggs in a spicy Arrabiata sauce that’s given a lift with ‘nduja, garlic and peppers.

A cafe that honours its past life as a mechanic’s workshop.

An Italian restaurant that offers delicious home-style cooking and good, honest food.
